The paper analyses the meaning of landscape portrayals in Thomas Hardy’s ‘Tess of the d’Urbervilles’ (1891), and Emily Bronte’s ‘Wuthering Heights’ (1874) discussing the effects of industrialisation on the 19th century Britain, the urban culture of capitalism, and the conflict between nature and society. Theoretic approaches to the aesthetic values of the period are reviewed examining their reflection in the two novels through landscape descriptions.
